Fans brave cold weather to watch K-pop shows

Seoul, South Korea – Korean music TV shows showcasing the most popular K-pop singers continue to draw local and international fans.

Bulletin Entertainment witnessed how these fans would even brave the coldest of weathers to see their idols in person.

My Seoul-based friend Katieryn and I were able to attend rehearsals for the SBS “Inkigayo” music show held at the SBS Open Hall in Gangseo-gu, Seoul, last March 9, through the efforts of the Foreign Press Center Korea, Korean Culture and Information Service and the Korean Cultural Center in the Philippines.

We lined up outside the SBS Open Hall past 1 p.m. The compound was already teeming with fans despite the temperature ranging from 5 to negative 2 degree Celsius.
